Post by ziobato »

The best way to start the new year is to re-paint the bike and so I did. :mrgreen:

Great job Ziobato! The new touches are fantastic. Especially like the black front and white rear wheels - very sporty.

It looks like a completely different bike, very sporty! Nice detailing as well.

You truly have an artist's eye, Ziobato. Your considerable (and at times subtle) individual efforts meld seamlessly into a very satisfying visual package, fairly dripping with understated elegance!

Also, that is one of the very rare examples of differing treatments of front and rear wheels that I've seen, and a most pleasing execution!

As you are already aware, I've always thought your bike was one of the most beautiful motorcycles to ever grace the road, and now you've gone and taken it to another aesthetic level!

Well done, sir! =D>
